Suggestion - measure tool

[irokiee]

Hello!
I have a suggestion that the results of the measuring tool could be left on a layer e.g. ‘dimensions’. The function of the current tool is very poor. I can only do one step and cannot give several dimensions. This function would really speed up the work instead of drawing lines and describing them. Since something similar already exists - why not develop and improve it?

This has already been requested many times in the proper suggestion/request areas of the forums.

Try searching the forums for dimension or measure .

Requests for new features should not normally be posted to one of the beta sections of the forums.

I'm sorry too

No harm done.

You can find an existing thread and ‘add your voice’ to it if you want to.

@GarryP Is there an “official thread“ were we can add our voice to make sure this issue would be addressed?

Thanks a lot!

There isn’t one ‘official thread’ for requests for this as many have already been made.

As I said above, you can search the forums for dimension or measure to find any number of existing requests.

For example: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/search/&q=dimension&quick=1&type=forums_topic&nodes=52

You can ‘add your voice’ to any of them.

Hi everyone, I agree that improving the measuring tool would be really helpful! Adding dimensions to a layer and allowing more measurements would make things much easier. I’ll look for the threads you mentioned and share my thoughts there too
